Bet you heard this advice
About treating yourself like you would a hurt friend
You've probably heard it once or twice
Yet still don't know how to treat yourself that way
We tell people we love the things we wish to hear
Because we think that saying such words to the person
Standing before us in the mirror is not sincere
But there's no shame in treating ourselves kindly
You are only to blame if you undermine your self's worth
Every superstar had to start out from the bottom of zero
So don't treat the person in the mirror as your own anti-hero
-Currently listening to "Anti-hero" by Taylor Swift.
